Raising Kids With a Backbone in a Culture of Wishbones with Dr Matthew Weathers

from The Heidi St. John Podcast · host Heidi St. John

The world isn’t getting easier—and raising kids who can stand firm in it won’t happen by accident. Today I’m joined by Dr. Matthew Weathers of Bob Jones University to talk about raising young people with character, conviction, competence, and courage. We’re talking about why kids need to do hard things, why parents have to model what we want our children to become, and how to prepare them to stand for Christ when the culture pushes back. Remember, we can’t pass on what we don’t possess.Angel Studios — Stream Seeking Persephone, a beautiful Regency-era love story built on character, trust, and forgiveness, at Join To Watch Seeking Persephone | Angel .Learn more about Bob Jones University and opportunities for homeschool families at Visit BJU and Homeschool Students .Shop MyFreedomCart for trusted, American-made products that support your values.My Freedom Cart — Buy Direct.
